What is a portable program

pendrive

Although for some time now, pendrives seem to have gone into the background thanks to the proliferation of cloud storage services, the truth is that these small devices, which currently allow us to store up to a terabyte of information, continue being very useful, especially if we have the need to run applications on different computers without having to download them, since we are simply going to need it for a short period of time. This is where portable applications come in. This type of application allows us to run directly from a pendrive the applications that we use the most on any computer, regardless of whether it is previously installed or not.

Currently on the internet we can find a large number of portal applications, created by the developers themselves. But if we talk about applications from large developers, the number is very limited, if not practically zero. But on the internet we can also find this type of portable applications, applications that obviously have not been created by the developers of the sameInstead, it has been carried out by third parties to offer mobility to those users who need certain applications on a daily basis and spend the day from computer to computer.

To make use of these applications, we only have to run them directly from the pendrive, nothing more. We do not have to install anything on the PC where we want to run it, or modify the configuration, or modify the Windows registry or other registry files. When these applications are run only, they do not modify any system parameter since all the information necessary for operation is installed on the pendrive. This type of application is ideal especially if we are not administrators of the PC in which we are, since as a general rule, the possibility of being able to install applications in the system is limited.
